Question

in a class of 96 students, the number of girls are three-fifths of number of boys. find the number of boys and girls in class

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

total no of students=96

let the no of boys be y

let the no of girls be x

$x = (3 \div 5)y$

$x + y = 96$

$(3 \div 5)y + y = 96$

$3y + 5y = 480 \\ 8y = 480 \\ y = 60 \\ x + 60 = 96 \\ x = 36$

THEREFORE

The no of girls and boys are 36 and 60 respectively
